 Big Country - 1000 Stars
 
 Album - The Crossing
 
 From: maule_andy@hotmail.com
 
 Guitars 'double up'on this track. The tab pretty much covers
 Stuart Adamson's(Guitar 1) & Bruce Watson's(Guitar 2)parts - you'll have to choose
 which one you want to be.....unless of course you're a freak with
 two pairs of hands and a doubleneck guitar! The song is in C.
 
 h - hammer on
 p - pull off
 / - slide up
 \ - slide down
 ~ - vibrato
 PM- palm mute
